Robots

Yes there were robots in the pool this weekend and i got to lifeguard them. The ROV's (remote operated vehicles) were built by schools spanning the nation and Canada. I thought it would be awesome and exciting but man was I wrong!Let's talk about nerds. It was defcon 5 Nerd Alert! I have never seen so many pairs of glass with clip on sun shades in my life. It was like a Trekkie pool party. And furthermore, the "robots" weren't even cool. They looked like erector sets strapped to PVC piping. All of them were some how Borg inspired, swimming boxes of lameness. I wanted them to look like sharks... or even a submarine... but no.And were any of them cute, yes. one.but sadly, he was a new student looking at the pool during campus orientation and really had no place there.Consequentially, I did get a free lunch out of it and did get to practice my first aid... one of the nerds manages to cut himself with a screwdriver.
